You noted all the flex tubes. <br />It's interesting to see all the different takes on this set. Just watch some reviews and you'll see what I mean.

There are six listed, but seven shown. Two listed are dark-blue, but one of those appears to be black instead. The two longest rigid hoses look to be no more than 2 studs different in length, but they're described as having a 6-stud difference. The dark-blue soft axle is listed as being less than half the length of the shorter of the two dark-azure soft axles, but the picture shows a black one that's as long as the longer one.Purple Davenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-276033407505619194.post-12574275282074298512018-06-06T02:59:14.701+01:002018-06-06T02:59:14.701+01:00The "Bionicle 1 x 3 Tooth with Axle Hole"...The "Bionicle 1 x 3 Tooth with Axle Hole" has appeared in Dark Azur once before, in 71308 "Tahu - Uniter of Fire".
